Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Orchard Café in Norwich was struggling with constantly chipped and  broken ceramic platters from their busy lunchtime service. They needed a more durable solution that didn't compromise on the clean, fresh aesthetic of their brand.

"We switched to these Kristallon melamine platters six months ago. They still look brand new, despite being used and  washed dozens of times a day. The staff love how light they are, and  our breakage costs have basically vanished. A brilliant investment."

Robert Evans – Owner, The Orchard Café

The café has reported a 90% reduction in replacement costs for servingware and  quicker turnaround times during cleanup.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Unpack and  inspect for any transit damage before use.
  • Give the platter a good wash with warm, soapy water before its first service.
  • That's it! It's ready to start beautifully displaying your food.

Keeping It Going

  • This platter is commercial dishwasher safe for easy cleaning.
  • To avoid deep scratches, try to avoid using sharp, serrated knives directly on the surface.
  • Do not use in any type of oven or microwave, as it is not heat-resistant.
  • For stubborn food stains like curry or tomato, a melamine-specific cleaning solution will work wonders.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Servingware

Not sure what to look for? Here’s a quick guide to help you pick the perfect platters and  trays for your business.

Material Matters

Melamine offers durability and  a porcelain look, ideal for high-traffic areas. Porcelain is classic but fragile. Consider your breakage rate and  budget.

Size and  Shape

Rectangular platters like this one are great for maximising space. Round platters can create a softer look. Think about what you're serving and  how it will fit on the plate.

Colour and  Style

White is a timeless choice that makes food pop. However, coloured or patterned platters can complement your brand's theme. A white melamine platter is always a safe, professional bet.

Stackability and  Storage

If space is tight, look for platters with a low profile that stack securely. This saves precious shelf space and  makes them easier to transport.

Durability Features

Check for key features like 'chip-resistant' and  'scratch-resistant'. These aren't just buzzwords; they mean the product is built to last in a commercial setting.
